I do not normally wear makeup because I have such huge pores that I feel like any foundation I apply will clog them up and in the long run, this cannot be good for my skin. So, the only two makeup items that I allow myself are lipsticks and blushers. My Achilles heel has to be lipsticks and lipbalms. I gift them to myself on all special occasions: new job present, Monday present, birthday present, Tuesday present, break-up-with boyfriend present, Wednesday present, Xmas present, Thursday present…you get the idea. Its like an incurable disease I have – this urge to purchase lipsticks.

One morning, I was reading a magazine article on lipsticks and it mentioned this brand called Kailijumei. It said that this pH-adjusting lipstick made by a Chinese company that had dried flowers and gold flecks in it was apparently the hype among beauty bloggers. Flowers? Gold flecks? pH-adjusting? These were all unusual sounding references for a lipstick so I immediately bought one for myself to try.

Since I last bought this lipstick, Kailijumei have expanded into lip glosses. Their original website is rather simplistic with no information about the company. You just select the product you want and checkout. I guess there is nothing much to say when you’re essentially selling the same product with the only variation being the colour of the embedded dried flower. However, head on to their UK website if you want more detail.

There are two new additions to the A’pieu sheet mask family. They are tasty looking and smell delicious, they are something I would buy if they came in a juice bottle! Their mask sheets are affordable and have never disappointed me, so this is a new adventure of course I am looking forward to. There are two options: lemon and pomegranate. The first is for softening and brightening, the second for softening and moisturizing – so of course in the dry winter I went for the moisturizing one. Let’s see how it goes!

When I ran out of my makeup remover, I was at loss on what to actually buy. There are a lot of cleansing creams and lotions, and even tissues, to choose from! What drew me to The SAEM’s Cleansing Water was the promise of removing even the most stubborn makeup and the claim that you can go straight to bed afterwards. I’ve never been loyal to a cleansing product ever, since I find that they all do their jobs equally well, but then this cleansing water might have changed my mind!

It took me almost two weeks to find this product because ordering it online alone would be a waste of shipping cost, and in stores it was either sold out or selling in packs of 10. Finally I found it and admired all its greatness! Dandelion is one of the prettiest flowers, and for those of you who are Disney fans: I always feel like Belle for a brief moment when I see these flowers.

I have no idea how dandelion is good for our skin and I didn’t even know there are non-white dandelions, so I guess there is already a lot of things I’m learning thanks to this mask. There are non-white dandelions in Korean language, they are a type of chrysanthemum – I guess that explains the white dandelion mystery.

I have always been in love with Innisfree. My first foray into the world of Korean skincare products started with Innisfree mainly because I was intrigued with the ingredients they incorporated into their skincare: orchid, green tea, volcanic clusters, seawater, soybean, rice, broccoli, olives…you get the idea. Prior to this, I was a Dermalogica super fan and so a skincare range using natural and everyday “in-my-larder” ingredients was very alien to me.

As Innisfree is definitely cheaper than Dermalogica, I decided to give my wallet a break and opted for this (at that time) very strange concept of “essence” which apparently I was supposed to incorporate into a recommended gazillion step skincare routine.

I do not want to stop myself on Peripera Pearly Night cushiononly, since I can be very greedy for cute makeup products! So yeah, I grabbed this Pearly Night Peri’s Ink Velvet too, hhaha. As I said on my previous review, Peri’s Ink Velvet is a part of the Peripera’s Pearly Night holiday collection. Of course, the renewed packaging comes in an extra cute look. It has a mini snow globe on top of the cap and there is a tiny bear inside! *Once again, cute makeup alert!*

Peripera Pearly Night Peri’s Ink Velvet comes in 4 shades only, meanwhile the original version has 15 shades! The four shades picked are the best seller of Peri’s Ink Velvet. It contains of shade #1-Sellout Red, #2-So Grapefruit, #6-Celeb Deep Rose and #14-Beauty Peak Rose. I owned the shade Sellout Red which I think this is a perfect red for holidays. Well, since I can not wait to show this cute lip tint for you all, let’s get started!

It’s my first Verite product (yay!) and since I didn’t know the brand until this moment it was all very exciting and new. As a brand that’s part of Amore Pacific I have nothing but high expectations for it, especially since most of their brands haven’t failed me thus far! Of all the masks they have I was stuck between this one and a double step “one for morning one for night” mask, but I chose this one (I know you must all be disappointed) because I read a review on that one and I didn’t find much on these ones.

I laughed like a devil when I got this cute pinky baby on my doorstep. Hhaha! This product sold like hotcakes. I saw some online sellers in my country brought it on their shop at night and wanted to make my order in the next morning, but it was sold out everywhere and very fast, oh my God! Lucky me, I finally got mine from a seller (but at a bit higher price). Well, it doesn’t matter because I am HAPPY!!!

So, Inklasting Pink Cushion is not a new product from Peripera. But a special thing from this cushion is it’s in Pearly Night edition, special and limited edition for holiday 2017. Peripera Pearly Night collection consists of Inklasting Cushion (pink and lavender), 4 shades of Peri’s Ink Velvet, highlighters, lip gloss, liquid shadows and hand creams. They are all housed in glittery packages (cute makeup alert!). And this cushion looks like a sparkly snow globe. This is why I really really wanted it! Now, let’s find out more about this cutie pinky baby! Here we go…
